About this record

The matrix stamped in the dead wax reads M-PJM2-8021 with side suffixes A through D, and each side carries the words Manufactured in Germany, which places this Spike Jones 1974 pressing in the German plant run rather than an original American issue. Only 8 collectors currently want this set against 126 who report owning one, so the scarcity is real but the want list is short.

Released on RCA International (Camden) as catalogue PJM 2-8021, this two-disc compilation of 23 tracks is about as specific as a novelty reissue gets.

What drives its value

Price guide figures are not supplied for this release, so no grade-by-grade values can be quoted here. What the record does show is a community position of 126 have and 8 want, with a rating of 4 from 6 ratings.

The market snapshot records a lowest listed price but the data does not carry a grade-specific spread, so buyers should check the live lowest price on Discogs before setting a number. Its place among the other pressings matters: the release notes state a sister issue, catalogue 18582424, shares the same layout but lacks the DP marking on the label top, and that difference is the main value lever a buyer can verify by eye.

Two runouts on this German pressing are marked with a B, which sellers may cite as a variant, and the Teldec-Press GmbH credit alongside RCA Schallplatten GmbH shows the set was made at more than one plant.

How to appraise this pressing

Confirm the pressing by reading the dead wax. The runout strings are M-PJM2-8021-A, M-PJM2-8021-B with a B mark, M-PJM2-8021-C with a B mark, and M-PJM2-8021-D, each followed by Manufactured in Germany.

Check the label top for the DP marking: the release notes say the version that carries it is the one to distinguish from 18582424. Confirm the catalogue PJM 2-8021 and the RCA International (Camden) imprint on the spine and labels, and verify the printed credit Made in Germany by RCA Schallplatten GmbH together with Printed in Germany and the line 1974 RCA Records.

The gatefold sleeve should be present, and the track listing should show the recording years given in the release notes, from 1942 to 1953. Grade the disc and sleeve independently by inspecting both sides of each record for surface wear, then compare against the community rating of 4 from 6 votes as a rough consensus.

Frequently asked

What is a VG+ copy of this record worth?

No price guide figure for VG+ is available in the data supplied for this release, so no amount can be stated. The lowest listed price is recorded in the market snapshot, but it does not specify grade, so check current listings grade by grade on Discogs.

How do I tell this pressing from catalogue 18582424?

The release notes say the version with the DP marking on the label top is the one to separate from 18582424, which lacks it. Look at the top of each label for the DP text and confirm the catalogue PJM 2-8021.

Which pressing plant made this copy?

The credits list RCA Schallplatten GmbH and Teldec-Press GmbH, so the copy may come from either plant. The printed line Made in Germany by RCA Schallplatten GmbH is the direct statement on the sleeve or label.

What do the B marks in the runouts mean?

Runouts B and C both carry a B mark next to the matrix string, while A and D do not. The data records the marks but does not explain them, so treat them as a variant identifier to compare against another copy rather than a grading factor.

Is this record worth buying given its demand?

The community data shows 126 have and 8 want, so supply is larger than demand among collectors who track it. Its value depends on grade and the DP label detail rather than scarcity alone, and the rating of 4 from 6 ratings gives only a limited signal of quality.
